There are plenty of places in the woods nearby that would make good hiding spots for this cache, but I decided to keep this one pretty easy and comfortable for those wanting to seek it at night. Parking coordinates are provided for when it is crowded in the area. If the area is completely deserted, feel free to drive to within 40 feet of the cache. The area is accessed through the back of a church parking lot, so please be respectful of their activities and worship times. Please put the cache back in far enough to avoid compromising it. Thanks and have fun.
